Hi,
I'm having big problems with my wireless internet connection. I'm using a macbookpro and for some reason my wireless speed is really slow sometimes like dailup! I have a virgin media 4mb connection which is connected to a d-link 614+ router. No computer are connected to the router via ethernet (only when I want my true connection speed). I have a HP printer connected to router via ethernet. I have set up a network with wep security, before anybody says go for wpa I cant as for some reason my mac wont connect when i create one? The strongest signal i get on my network is when I use it on channel 11 if i change it my signal goes down. Somebody on road is also running a network on channel 11 but this has wpa would this affect mine. I havent run a speed tests on my other xp machine yet but by just using the net on it i can tell it's quicker. Can anybody help my with this problem? I know it's not my ISP as when using the internet via ethernet I get my 4mb connection. Is it my mac? what could be wrong? Advice please.

cheers
